Crystal Report Display word documents
Crystal Report 2011 version 14.0.4.738 RTM
Oracle 11.2.0.3
I have an oracle database that contains one page word documents. The word documents are stored in the oracle database as a BLOB , The word format is Microsoft word 97 – 2003. I need to read and display the word document in Crystal reports 2011.
I can successfully read the BLOB from the oracle data base but crystal report thinks it is an IMAGE. How do I get the BLOB image converted and display it as a word document in crystal reports.
Or are there other solutions to dynamically put word documents into a crystal report.
The word documents in the database change daily with new one being added all the time. Currently there are more than 5000+ documents.

Did you try to create a Word OLE Object and set the graphic location to the database field ?

None of these solutions is workable. As how to prevent to reports from running at the same time. So there is no real soultion to this question other than it can not be done.
